    Doesn't a 1/8" pipe thread fit in there, such as what would be used for a manometer hose barb connection?

    Nah, these are li'l Allen setscrews ground to a point. The secret is that you don't remove them, just crack them a turn or so. That'll be plenty to check pressures (but not purge air, not that I would ever do that…)
    I'm afraid that the only replacement source that I know of is a donor valve. I used to keep a few of those, and the ⅛" plugs, on hand from when I condemned a valve.

    If you figure out what size they are you can probably order them from mcmaster-carr.
